The third-world would have viable revolutionary potential if they collectivised and striked. I think as far as western marxist intellectuals relating to dirt-poor workers, go, though, it is impossible.

Also, first-world proletariat are still proletariat. We may get more money in the west, but things also cost more money too.

Also, first-world proletariat are still proletariat.Aren't they labor aristrocrats?

We may get more money in the westWhy do first worlders get more money?

but things also cost more money too.Relative to average wages adjusted for purchasing power parity?

Aren't they labor aristrocrats?No Why do first worlders get more money?Industrialiation and Mechanization of labor Relative to average wages adjusted for purchasing power parity?That cash dosn’t go as far when your paying $18,000 a year for rent.

Jason pretends to be some sort of authority on this subject, he is thinking he is the actual founder of MTW.But MTW is one of the most fringe marxist ideologies which ever existed. Caleb might misrepresented Jasons particular ideology, but the general idea of MTW or Third-Worldism, is correct how he explained it.

Also, first-world proletariat are still proletariat.Yes however their wages are artificially higher due to the exploitation of the third world.Their standard of living is higher under capitalism than proletarians under socialism are currently

I don't deny how the first-world benefits from third-world exploitation - but is protesting African and Asian labour through non-consumption enough to make a real change though?

Their standard of living is higher under capitalism than proletarians under socialism are currentlyThis is because the only two socialist countries right now (Cuba and DPRK) are not industrialized and isolated from the rest of the world. If say the US or France became socialist with all of their Industry and Technology intact, and no major sanctions, living standards would dramatically rise for 99% of people.

Caleb and Roo are both fucking idiots but I actually somewhat enjoyed the last conversation they had (mostly because of Caleb though, Roo didn't contribute much). Might have to give this a listen.

primeWhen did they actually have their prime though? Roo got famous as a lolcow who shot videos from his mom's basement which were ghostwritten by RAIM, and Caleb Maupin became a thing by yelling at protesters in NYC on camera. Compared to what they were before you might actually argue they are more of a thing now than they had been.

Most Americans don’t earn as much as the GDP per capita. Some 70% of Americans earn less than this supposed average.

Unhure in general should try to be more normal-ish. I'm sure he's a nice guy and all but if you average person is going to find some weird punk guy talking about communism with "let the bodies hit the floor" playing in the background, he might have a bad first impression.

But he is wrong about the fascist rhetoric, it doesn't have any scapegoating, it doesn't say anything about the rest of the world, this is indifference
